tein basics or skunk 2 pro s

which one should i get tein basic coilovers or the skunk 2 pro s?

i have heard that the tein basics makes squeaking noises or something like that. this is why i really dont want to get em. however, i know that tein makes great stuff.

pro's ftw!

look here Skunk2 Pro-S Coilovers : Pictures and Installation with Review
and here: Skunk2 Pro-S Coilovers on a NHBP FA5 ***Pics inside***

I probably also go with the skunk2 pro-s!

It may not be one of your selections but I say go for the buddy club N+ and get a camber kit for front and rear.
